Very good point. It is nearly remarkable that they could pull it off after losing underclassman to the draft. It was easier to manage/recruit players when they stayed 4 years. We were fortunate to plug the holes in the secondary.

How many Bama players left early for the draft between 1980 and 2006? Maybe 3?. McCants was a big story when he left early in the late 80's. Even Alexander stayed for his senior year. I have always agreed with players leaving if they were going high in the draft.

i think that everyone thinking that we will be facing some sort of otherworldly defense from Georgia should go look at their defensive rankings, then go look at their opponents this year (it was a weak schedule)

Raj: Excuse me, I can't be drinking, I'm about to make an important scientific discovery here!
Howard:What? Galileo did his best work while drinking wine!
Raj: How do you know that?
Howard: He was Italian, it's a reasonable assumption.
Raj: Dude, can you even open your mouth without saying a cultural stereotype?
Howard: I'm sorry Galileo drank diet sprite!

Eric Zeier comes to mind Very accurate and can throw some bullets. He's 6'1 which has limited a lot of NFL hype imo, but that size is not a handicap in college.

He could be a mismatch for us since we don't have a Clowney type player. This could be our most difficult game of the season, but unlike the aTm game, we know more about this team and should be more focused!

This is a game where the 3-4 could have problems again if he gets too much time.
